El Alcazar Recreationa

The hotel's location is fantastic, but it is uncomfortable no matter how you put it. They have different hallways with a set of 8 capsules per hallway. We got hallway #4 capsule #30, at least it was the bottom capsule. Each hallway has a private bathroom for the hallway plus there is communal bathrooms after all the hallways. Next to our room is a closet with an electronic lock to put your luggage. Inside the capsule you have a mirror and TV. You can't control the temperature yourself, only the air flow and if it's cold or hot you have to tell the front to adjust it for you and the other 7 capsules. In order to take a shower you have to (kind of) make a mess inside your capsule or outside in front of everyone, because there is no other way. When we returned to the hotel that night somebody had a mess all over the floor and the place smelled like dirty laundry. This hotel is for 1 or maybe 2 nights, no more. The staff were very helpful and courteous, but it doesn't compensate for the lack of comfort. We stayed the first night, but moved to another hotel after that since it was a 5 days stay.

Would be nice to have been advised there are two entrances, we could access the building, then we noticed a second entrance about 25 yards away which accepted the entrance code. Beforehand, having been unable to access the building, we attempted to contact the host unsuccessfully via the methods advised. Apartment is basic, however spotlessly clean, sea facing room on the top floor overlooking the sea. No oven, so be aware if your planning to cook your own meal. Shower could do with anti slip mat as very slippery. Location is ideal, away from the main tourist areas and you can immerse yourself more with the locals and their world. You can walk to the old town in about 45 mins along the beach front. Over all, we enjoyed our stay, just a few niggles on on behalf which could transform this to a better experience, that said, we would return.
